Learning, Logic and Probabiity

Learnin,g Logic, and Probability Video

Artificial intelligence systems must be able to learn, reason logically, and handle uncertainty. Research has focused on each of these goals individually, and only recently have attempts been made to achieve all three at once. In this colloquia, Pedro Domingos, UW Computer Science & Engineering, describes Markov logic: a representation that combines the full power of first-order logic and probabilistic graphical models, and algorithms for learning and inference in it. Experiments in a real-world university domain illustrate the promise of this approach.

Homeschool High School - Options

I have been looking into the North Atlantic Regional Schools High School Program. This looks like a viable option for our oldest son. He is beginning to take high school level classes this year, it would be a shame to not get proper credit for it.

I always like to check out the reputation of any organization I would consider an association with before we would make any sort of decision below is the only negative info I found.
Apology to NARHS for being accused of operating a diploma mill.
